Cole Kehler (born December 17, 1997) is a Canadian ice hockey goaltender currently playing as a prospect of the Los Angeles Kings in the National Hockey League (NHL).

Playing career

After being selected by the Kamloops Blazers of the Western Hockey League in the 2012 Bantam Draft, Kehler competed for the starting goaltender position with Connor Ingram during the 2014–2015 season.[1] After two partial seasons of poor performance with Kamloops, Kehler was assigned to play for the Merritt Centennials of the British Columbia Hockey League and was named the starting goalie.[2]

The Blazers traded Kehler's WHL rights to the Portland Winterhawks in August, 2016.[3] He played for Portland between 2016 and 2018, guiding the Winterhawks to playoff appearances in both seasons. After attending the Winnipeg Jets Skills Development Camp in 2017, Kehler signed a professional contract with the Los Angeles Kings.[4][5]

Kehler made his professional debut in 2018 with the Manchester Monarchs of the ECHL.
